Pablo Zapata is a London-based, award-winning filmmaker from Venezuela, known for his distinctive auteur style and cinematic approach to both independent films and commercial content. With over 15 years of experience, his work has been showcased at international festivals including Osaka, Nottingham, Buenos Aires, Solaris, and Arica Nativa.


Pablo’s storytelling is deeply influenced by his international background and early work in Venezuelan prisons, where he used film as a tool for education and social change.


Now based in London, he collaborates with production companies and clients to craft visually rich, emotionally resonant content—while continuing to develop his own auteur-driven film projects that explore dreamlike narratives, psychological tension, and symbolic depth.
